After separation from the drum, the copy paper rides on the transport belts
[A] and transport rollers [B] to the fusing unit.
Airflow directly from the vacuum fan [C] holds the paper firmly against the
belts so that there is enough friction between the paper and the belts for
smooth transportation of the paper. The transport belts and transport rollers
are directly driven by the fusing drive chain (no clutch or solenoid); so, they
turn constantly when the main motor is on.
